Off He Goes
From: jeremy keehn &ltjkeehn@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca&gt
ok, this one's not too tough... basically three chords, though there are
some nice variations you can throw in if you want- i added in a
G/F-Asus2-Am pattern that can just be left as F-C-Am if you prefer...
and instead of playing Fs, you can play Csus4 (11033x)... that sounds
pretty good, too.

Know a man... His face pulled and tense...
FCG/FAsus2Am
Like he's riding on a motorbike... in the strongest winds
FCFC
So I approach with tact... suggest that he should relax
FCG/FF
But he's always moving much too fast
AmAsus2AmAsus2Am
Said he'll see me on the flipside... of this trip he's taken for a ride
FCFCFC
He's been takin'... too much on... off he goes
FCG/FAsus2AmFC
with his perfectly un--kept clothes... there he goes

He's yet to come back... but I see his picture
FCFCAmFC
Doesn't look the same up on the rack... we go way back
FAmAsus2AmAsus2Am
I wonder 'bout his insides... it's like his thoughts are too big for his size
FCFCFC
He's been taken... Where? I don't know... off he goes
FCG/FAsus2AmFC
with his perfectly un--kept hope... there he goes
[repeat chorus riff]
FCFC
And now I rub my eyes... for he has returned
FCFCG/FAsus2Am
Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned
FC
For he still smiles... and he's still smiling
FCFCG/FAsus2Am
Nothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit... that has grown
FCFC
And now he's home and we're laughing
FCFCAm
Like we always did... my same old... same old friend
FCFC
Until a quarter to ten... I saw the strain creep in
FCFCG/FAsus2Am
He seemed distracted and I know just what is going to hap-pen next
FCFC
Before his first step... he is off again

Then the rest of the song is basically just a combination
or F, C and Am chords. A classic "3 chord"-er.
There's also this little bit, or something similar.

Lyrics:Verse
CFCFAm
Know a man His face seems pulled and tense
FCFCFCAm
like hes riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds
FCFC
So I approach with tact suggest he should relax
AmFGF
but hes always moving much too fast
(at the end of the verse there is no chord but try C for fun)
Chorus 1
Am Intro picking Am
Said hell see me on the flip side of his trip hes taken for a ride
Intro picking FCFCFC
hes been taken too much on off he goes
FCAmFC
with his perfectly unkept clothes there he goes
Verse 2( same chords as in verse 1 I think)
Hes yet to come back but I see his picture
doesn't look the same up on the rack we go way back
Chorus 2( chords are same as chorus 1)
I wonder bout his insides its like his thoughts are too big for his size
hes been take where? T don't know off he goes
withe his perefectly unkept hope there he goes
and now I rub my eyes for he has returned
seems my preconception are what should have been burned
for he still smiles and hes still strong
nothing's chaned but the surronding bullshit that has grown
And now hes home and were laughing
like we always did my same old same old friend
Until a quarter to ten i see the strain creep in
He seems ditacted and i know just what going to happen next
before his first step he is off again
I havent done the rest because it repeats itself i think.Comments e-mail me at.
